The sun is rising earlier, the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming - all big signs that Spring is here. It's also time time for the annual Move for CASA Spring fundraiser!
Every dollar from this incredible event supports our mission to immediately provide court appointed volunteers to every child entering the child dependency court system. This means that every foster youth in our county is paired with a specially trained Advocate who takes the time to understand their needs and connects them with the people, families and resources they need to heal and flourish into adulthood. An advocate is a trusted, consistent and caring adult present in their lives that will amplify their voice and serve their best interests as they navigate through the complex child dependency system. For some, having this resource is a lifeline.
The past two years have been especially hard on our foster youth, with increased isolation, challenges with education, and homelessness. We're grateful for any amount (or words of encouragement) that you can offer.
If you can think of others who might be interested in making a donation, please forward this link to them or share it on your social media accounts. CASA of Santa Cruz County is a great organization and you’d be helping them (and me!) by spreading the word.
Thank you so much for supporting CASA of Santa Cruz County. We couldn’t do it without you!
